Yuppers.
Yellowjackets and hornets I react to.
I feel cold and hot at the same time, raised itchy bumps (hives) and mild breathing difficulty.
Bee stings and wasp stings only produce localised discomfort and the usual five day oozing and healing process.

But the venom is very similar between the four, so I don't understand why I react differently to them.

As far as plants go, calalillies, lilacs, lillies, amaryllis, hyacinths, easter lillies, and tulips make me sneeze.
Roses do not.
Weird.

You're an anomaly! LOL Serious, you may be quite unique and may need to be studied. I know that sounds silly but you definitely don't sound like the average person. Anyone else in your family react similarly?

"...calalillies, lilacs, lillies, amaryllis, hyacinths, easter lillies..."

Some of my favorite flowers. I have 2 hyacinths in my
room. I only got a slightly fuzzy feeling nose... it took
sitting in there with them for a while too. Daisies... on the
other hand, are evil. THEY make me sneeze constantly.
